Suitability for processing — table beet
Beta vulgaris Garden Beet Group
The technological suitability of beets is assessed by the biochemical composition of the flesh, the intensity of the color without light rings, the root shape, and the stability of the structure during thermal processing.
In the reference 133 varieties crop Garden beet, where this is mentioned in the description.
The assessment of table beet suitability for industrial processing is based on the analysis of sugar, betanin, and vitamin C content, as well as nitrate levels. Morphological characteristics, such as root shape, are critical for reducing waste percentages during mechanized peeling, with cylindrical shapes considered the most preferable in production.
A specific factor for this crop is the necessity to eliminate pronounced light rings in the flesh and to control the 'zoning' process, which affects tissue structure during processing. Unlike sugar beet, where sugar yield is essential, the quality of table varieties is determined by the stability of intense coloration, flesh density, and the sensory properties of the finished product.
